Smith is a Flat-Track Bully. This is literally India's 3rd XI bowling attack. Look at what FTB Smith did against India's (almost) 1st XI in Adelaide. What was it? 1 run off 29 balls that included being given a life? He's been a failure this series, but will get away with numbers that look so-so, 'cos of FTB runs against India's 2nd XI on a dead deck in Sydney and against India's 3rd XI in Brissy.Pies4shaw wrote:...smith is the only batsman to get over 50 in this Second Innings.

Re. this second innings: You forgot to mention that everyone in the top 8 except Wade (caught down legside) got to at least 25. You also forgot to mention that Smith was given another life when Siraj dropped a sitter off Sundar's bowling.
And the only batsman who got a move on was Marnus with 25 (22).
It won't be a picnic picking up 10 Indian wickets on the final day. The draw is short favourite with the bookies right now. (Anyone who disagrees maybe should put money on the win now while the odds offered are good.)
